The father of a New York City teen accused of causing a fatal accident while driving 101 mph in a 30-mph zone was sentenced to probation for crimes linked to the 2023 crash, officials said. Sean Smith, 40, had been accused of helping facilitate his son's access to the 2005 BMW involved in the May 17 crash that left a 14-year-old passenger dead, the Office of the Queens District Attorney said in a news release.
In 2022, the teen was ticketed for driving without a license and driving while using an electronic device, the DA said. The crash occurred at 6:38 p.m. on May 17, 2023, near John F. Kennedy International Airport. The teen was trying to change lanes and lost control of the BMW, first crashing into a parked UPS truck, then spinning across the road and striking a tractor-trailer, according to the release.
